I was very excited earlier in the week to hear that the fine people at Electric Spec wanted to publish one of my short stories, titled Showdown.

Who are Electric Spec? In their own words:

Electric Specis a not-for-profit speculative fiction magazine published four times per year. Our primary goal is getting great speculative fiction into the hands (or screens) of readers. Since 2005, we’ve been publishing short stories from authors all over the world. We’ve worked with all kinds of authors, from published professionals to new writers. We also believe in the value of the editorial process, and we edit every story we publish.

Electric Spec have recently published a blog article announcing some of the first line up for their next edition (including me!), which can be found here.

I’m really excited to work with Lesley and the rest of the Electric Spec editorial team on bringing Showdown to life. The edition is due to be published on May 31, and I hope you read and enjoy my story.
